good morning and welcome back Brandi!

One kid out the door, two to go.

Brandi, you'll be glad to know that DD13 already told her orchestra teacher that she will miss the winter concert during the cruise, just like you suggested!

DD8's school has Patriot Day today; they're wearing red/white/blue and will sing patriotic songs to visiting police, fire, military.

PA is only 5%? We went up to 7.

We have a 6% sales tax but clothing, medication, and groceries are all exempt from tax. A lot of people come to PA for clothing shopping!!!!

Patriot Day sounds very nice. I am glad she told her director. That is the way to be..up front about the situation.

I am currently feeling very overwhelmed trying to catch up....I already read 30 pages this morning! I might need to go and make breakfast soon. My kiddos are still sleeping...amazing as that is....I think I will be back later.

I don't have much time this morning but I did want to post just a little something to remind all of us to take a little time to give thanks to those Americans who have given so much for our freedom.

 

[goofyforlife]

Also Lisa , you have my DS Dylan and my Niece Paige doing wild side on Sunday at CC they will do that on Friday at CC ...Only cause it will be more fun when they meet alot of the other kids all week ...

oh, see now i put dd on Sunday thinking she would meet kids there....

 

[goofyforlife]

Now that's not nice to say to someone on their first night back to the group! Don't call Brandi dafe...or daffy.

Lisa what were you doing up. ....I thought you were sick and going to bed.....
I think once you are up so long....it's hard to fall asleep....

One time before a dis trip, i had to work late to finish up a project, didn't get home until 1am, still had to pack for the trip and last loads of laundry. We had to leave for the airport at 8 am anyway so i ended "up" all night. I then managed to stay awake until 10 or 11 the next night.

BTW...i managed to pass along what i thought was allergies to my DH and to 2 co-workers that i know of.

Yes - thanks to all those ~ may you all return home safely and soon!




I am h-u-r-t-i-n-g this morning. I don't think I went to bed until 1am. I watched the Manning shootout and darn - Shockey only got me one TD. I have one guy left tonihgt but I am down by20 points so I think it is safe to say I lost my first game! It just goes to show any team can win on any given day - this guy had 12 points from the Bears D!! My hubby also got 12 points from the Ravens D. AMAZING!

I feel like closing my door and taking a nap.

oh and Lisa - what does underlining and * mean? I couldn't find a 'key".

The underline is noted at the top of the manifest. Those are the people linked with the group for dining. The ***s are for missing info.

 

[lbgraves]

Wow! I saved $4!

Was it worth it, Caroline??

 

[becka]

Kim - are you taking after Becka with those smilies?

The smilie sickness seems to have spread and Kim has a bad case lately....

Easy explanation for this. We don't have to do that for Brandi because SHE was the one who was causing all that trouble. Yeah that's it....it was all Brandi....

 

[becka]

Well enough fun already this morning. I have to go do some work.

I hope to check in later!

Brandi - It is great to have you back! I felt so lost without my twin!

I am watching the Today Show coverage and remembering that day. I took DS to 2 yr PS at 9 am then DD to her 1 year check up. On the way there I heard about a small plane hitting the tower. With images of a crop duster type plane bouncing off the building & falling to the street below I said a prayer for anyone it woud have hit on the ground. While in the room waiting for the doctor, I heard the nurses talking about a terroist attack. On the way home they announced smoke coming from the pentagon. I turned on the TV & was stunned to see both towers burning. I sat on the couch clutching DD until 11:45 when I had to pick up DS. I went right back to the couch watching TV until DS asked why someone was knocking down all the buildings. DH was at his parent's. His mom had her first tumor removed on 9/10, or he would have been out of town at meetings and I would have been even more upset worrying about him flying home.

I guess this is our generation's "where were you" event. Before this, I thought that was when the first shuttle exploded. I was a freshman in college on my way to class and heard about it from a friend on the sidewalk.
